Find it!
Marooned in a sprawling farmhouse in Norfolk, teenage Linda Radlett feels herself destined for greater things. Sh longs for love, but how will she ever find it? She can't even get a signal on her mobile phone. Linda's strict former-rock-star father terrifies any potential suitors away, while her bohemian mother, wafting around in silver jewellery, answers Linda's urgent questions about love with upsettingly vivid allusions to animal husbandry. Eventually, Linda does find her way out from the bosom of her deeply eccentric extended family, and escapes to London. She knows she doesn't want to marry 'a man who looks like a pudding', as her good and dull sister Louisa has done, and instead marries the flashy, handsome son of a UKIP peer. But this is only the beginning of Linda's pursuit of love, a journey that will be wilder, more surprising and more complicated than she could ever have imagined.
